Mood exposure: I held off on buying this for years. I've heard so much about it and just never wanted to "fall for the hype" but as a skeptic let me tell you, the hype is 100% real. Color- muted pin...Read more

This blush was extremely underwhelming for me. If it was a spice it would be flour. It just did....nothing. I can't even describe the color, I'm really pale (and more cool toned, if that matters) and ...Read more

I have tried and tried with this blush, but the truth is it just oxidizes like mad on my NW20 skin. I look sunburned, and not in a good way. This is not one of those flushed, back from a hike blushes....Read more

I have tried sooo many blushes-high end, drugstore, powder, cream, stain etc., and this is BY FAR the best. It looks so natural, and truly gives that lit from within glow. My cheeks look so healthy an...Read more

Mood Exposure is as good as everyone says. It looks dark in the pan, it looks like the most boring and basic blush ever when swatched, but on the face it is just straight-up phenomenal. It is easily i...Read more

I"m NC20 skintone (neutral/warm, fair). I've had this blush for a few years in a limited edition 6 pan, but every time I tried it looked muddy and very brown. It looked awful as a bronzer or a blush. ...Read more

Overall: 9/10 This blush has gorgeous packaging and the marbled powder is so pretty. I love mauve blush for a more dramatic look. This blush lasts all day and is easy to apply, not overly pigmented. ...Read more

I finally got around to trying this blush and I have to say that I love it. Mine looks as though it has a much higher ratio of highlighter to blush in the pan--I thought I'd look fake-glowy--but on my...Read more

A gorgeous plummy-brown shade that gives a nice glow to the cheeks. Super expensive, but it is such a gorgeous natural color.

This shade is so deceptive! It looks like a subdued nude plum in the pan but it translates as a rather bright rose on my cheeks. Also this blush is so finely milled that a tiny dab of my Real Techniqu...Read more

With it's soft muted tones I expected this to be perfect for my fair neutral complexion. Instead it looks a little muddy on and for some reason sort of warm against my skin. I will try one of the ot...Read more

There is a blush by sephora called tearose that is very similar. Unfortunately it is not this blush. Hourglass has this amazing way of giving the perfect glow to skin, but if you are caught up on the ...Read more

I dislike this blush immensely. Extremely powdery formula that gets EVERYWHERE. Color in pan does not match what shows on my face. Looks plum colored in pan and on my face its orangey. Awful product.

I am nc20-25 and I love this. It gives a natural flush/glow to the face. I bought it as soon as I had swatched it. It's that good. Quite expensive though. I reckon I can get a cheaper one with the ...Read more

I like this blush; the color doesn't really "pop," but it's a great subtle shine and very pretty color for daytime looks on fair skin. It has been lasting me for a long time (I alternate it with other...Read more

This is probably my favourite blush of all time. It is reminiscent of Tarte's Amazonian Clay Blush in "Exposed" (another favourite) but about 100x more amazing. The colour is a nude-plum type shade ...Read more
